Had an incident on the Atomic Think Tank message boards. I recently signed up for a Martial Arts game set in Gotham City. I had a random encounter with a guy whose character was a Batman analogue crossed with The Shadow. He successfully diverted my attention and hid. My character, being a bruiser sort, picked up a random thug and pitched him towards a wall to lure out the vigilante. It worked, but the player was so offended at my choice of tactics (apparently he'd missed the premise of the game and just built a straight super-hero) that he threatened to quit. As a compromise, I rewrote my post so that my character was certain what the vigilante would catch the other guy. Still, it left a bad taste in my mouth. It was ruthless tactics. It was also perfectly in character. Eh.

Well, I should try for sleep. Physical in the morning followed by work and our last rehearsal for Merchant of Venice before we open. One of the guys was carrying a book around on stage. Luckily, he's kind of our understudy for one of the roles, so he shouldn't impact opening night. Still, not a good omen.
